Swim Band Policy
For the safety of all swimmers, children ages 15 and under are required to wear a swim band while in the pool. Swim bands indicate a child’s swim ability level and help ensure they remain in appropriate areas of the pool.

Please note:
Swimming and water safety skills must be maintained. If a lifeguard observes that a swimmer is not demonstrating the required skills for their band level (such as swimming or treading water), the swimmer may be asked to retake the swim test or may have their band level adjusted for safety.

Participation on a swim team does not automatically qualify a child for a green band. All swimmers must pass the designated swim test to earn a band.
